    Are you guys kidding!? We made 16 errors, conceded 9 penalties, 2 LBs and our completion rate was 65%. It tooks us 15 minutes in the first half to complete a set. Great win yes and tough win (which is important). Thats the point Im making. We shot ourselves in the foot all night, were down to 12 (thanks to some creative refereeing) and still won at brookie. That is why we should start believing this year

      To be fair, Manly were pretty ordinary tonight with their decisions and errors.

        Shit I thought the 60/40's went Manly's way too.

          I'd give up while i was behind if i were you Roz.

          Most of the errors came due to the intensity & pressure in defence from both sides. It was a good all fashioned smash up & we came out on top. If you cant see or dont understand that well..........

            It was end to end stuff, 2 tries from kicks and 1 from a dropped ball.

            Brutal on line defence by both teams.

            Best we've played in about 10 years IMO.

            The commentators said something at one stage about fine rain from memory.

            You know it makes sense.

                I find it funny how Fa'aoso can dump Inglis straight on his head twice in 1 game (risking a broken neck) and just go's on report yet JWH lands an accidental high shot (risking a sore face) and gets sent off.

                  This would have to be the worst post of the year.......the intensity of the game contributed to many of the errors and both teams made them as it was an all out bash fest. I would rate our two losses as far worse performances and we rarely ever beat a good woManly side at Brookvale. Give yourself 10 uppercuts Roz.

                  Its sometimes good to win ugly, it says much more about a team's premiership credentials than a flashy 40 or 50 point win.

                    I totally agree....but I didn't find it funny at the time when he got sent off..

                      I understand where you are coming from Roz.
                      In attack we were not good at all.

                      To win and still be that far off our best in attack in very encouaging.

                          I agree, you can only beat the teams that turn up but, Manly have no reserve bench without King,Fiasoa and Galuvao and without Stewart they were woeful in attack, yes we won but Storm or Souths would of wiped the floor with us on that performance.

                            Correct! Its not as if JWH hit him dangerously... it was only on his head.

                              Thats what Im saying. Given we werent completing sets, kept dropping the ball, conceding penalties and were down to 12 men, we still beat manly at manly. The first sentence of my post ends with "the time is now" (referring to start believing). Why would I say its time to start believing if I was genuinely disappointed in our efforts. Winning like that is what shows how good a team is. The stats prove we actually played crap. Thats why its called winning ugly- playing crap, getting result

                              Ill even decode my post again: "That was our worst performance of the year AND we beat manly with 12 at brookie. If you didnt think we were the real deal already, the time is now!" "Worst performance" = penalties, completion rate, errors, bombed tries; "beating manly with 12" & "If you didnt think we were the real deal already, the time is now!" = we managed to tough it out in a dog fight with the leagues undisputed dog fight champions proving we are the real deal this year.

                              Im still not sure what exactly here doesnt make sense. Had we lost the game, my thread would have been nothing in comparison to the hate for the blokes that bombed the tries, dropped the ball, conceded the penalties etc. Just because we won, it doesnt sugar coat the way we played but at the same time, winning in that fashion in those circumstances is an achievement in itself

                                glimpses of 2012 , showed thru....

                                sbw lifted in the 2nd half and was missing in the first half.

                                skids had a shocker, but his errors were balanced out with his defence, 3 try saving tackles, a try assist and a hand ball
